I agree whole heartedly about the DADA conceit, so I  therefore do not 
want the real Moody to become DADA prof. On that note, I wonder why 
some suggested DADA teachers will turn out to be unsuitable:  Fleur, 
Mrs. Figg, the apocryphal "Romulus" Lupin.   Any ideas, people?

I also am a big fan of F&G (I prefer it without the spaces, myself.)
I would love to see them revealed as Unspeakables from the Department 
of Mysteries.
